Understanding the source

Understanding Napier City rental evidence

Napier City: the median weekly rent recorded in newly lodged bonds was NZ$645 for all dwelling types, all bedroom counts, for tenancies starting in July 2026. The reported sample was 126 bonds, randomly rounded by MBIE.

What does the Napier City rent sample include?

The all bedroom counts sample contains 126 reported newly lodged bonds across all dwelling types for tenancies starting in July 2026. The middle 50% of recorded weekly rents falls between NZ$543 and NZ$700. Counts are randomly rounded. Dwelling types and bedroom counts are combined in this monthly release; it is not a house-only or bedroom-specific rent estimate.

Which area do the Napier City figures cover?

Napier City is the territorial authority aggregate published by MBIE. It is not a suburb estimate.

How recent is this rental evidence?

The reporting window is July 2026 (one month). Tenancies starting in July 2026. The source was published on 10 September 2026. It records a completed bond-reporting period, rather than rents being advertised today.

Can this tell me what to ask for my property in Napier City?

The NZ$645 median describes this all bedroom counts bond sample; it is not a rental appraisal. Current asking rents, a property's condition and its precise location can differ from the sample. National data coverage does not mean New Zealand Realty offers property services in every location. Contact the team to discuss service availability. Monthly and annual rent changes are withheld while source comparability is under review.

Each page names its official source area and reporting period. Monthly figures and Wellington's three-month figures describe different samples and must not be treated as a like-for-like comparison.

Behind the numbers

What the median tells you

The median is the middle rent in the source sample. Half of the sampled rents are at or below it and half are at or above it. It describes the homes in that sample; it is not a valuation of an individual property.

Bonded and advertised rents are different

These rents come from newly lodged rental bonds. They are not current asking rents, the rent of every existing tenancy, or evidence that a property advertised elsewhere has been let.

Keep the geography in view

Coverage, sample checks and limitations
  • Weekly rents are NZD amounts recorded in newly lodged private-sector bonds, not advertised rents, all existing tenancies or a property valuation.
  • Monthly figures are grouped by tenancy start date, not the date a bond was processed.
  • This monthly publication combines all dwelling types and bedroom counts. It does not support a property-type or bedroom filter.
  • Counts are randomly rounded by MBIE. They may not sum to the published total. Bands below 10 reported lodged bonds are withheld.
  • National and regional medians are the provider’s own aggregates. Missing local geography is included in the national total and is not assigned to a region.
  • Napier City is the territorial authority aggregate published by MBIE. It is not a suburb estimate.
  • Tenancy Services advises that bond data is provisional during its system migration. Recent releases may be incomplete, revised or not directly comparable with earlier periods. Changes and market explanations are withheld pending comparability review.
  • This is an explicitly imported dated MBIE publication. It is refreshed through a reviewed import, and is withheld once the reporting period is more than 120 days old.
